A Conversational Artificial Intelligence Platform for Age-Friendly Care in Medicare Managed Care
Grant Summary
UTHealth Houston will develop and pilot MyHealthPriorities AI, a conversational artificial intelligence platform designed to improve age-friendly care for older adults by helping patients and caregivers clearly identify what matters most to them and translating those priorities into actionable, structured care goals within the electronic health record. In partnership with America’s Physician Groups and two Medicare managed care practices, the pilot project will integrate the tool into clinical workflows; support age-friendly, goal-aligned care planning; and test whether patient goals can be reliably captured and tracked using goal attainment measures. Through rapid-cycle testing with patients and clinicians, the team will evaluate real-world feasibility, acceptability and clinical integration while incorporating strong safeguards to support safe and responsible use of AI in care for older adults.
